XXX Is not a valid responsibility for the current user

There are multiple fixes for the error, some are listed below

This error is displayed because of the caching framework of apache, workflow components in oracle apps are suppose to sync the cache. When workflow events fail to trigger/function due to some XYZ reason, this issue occurs. Make sure workflow components are working optimally for permanent fix for temporary fix clear cache.

1. Clear cache

Go to > Functional Administrator responsibility

Click on Core services tab (the tab at the top right)

Click on Caching Framework Tab (blue tab under main tab)

Click on Global configuration

Click on Clear All Cache

A warning message related to performance will come , say yes

2. Bounce Apache by clearing cache

Datafile high water mark
How lower can you resize datafiles ?
define blksize=8192 –set  your db block size

select /*+rule*/ 'alter database datafile '''||file_name||''' resize '||ceil( (nvl(hwm,1)*&blksize)/1024/1024)||'m;',
ceil( (nvl(hwm,1)*&blksize)/1024/1024 ) smallest,
ceil( blocks*&blksize/1024/1024) currsize,
ceil( blocks*&blksize/1024/1024) -
ceil( (nvl(hwm,1)*&blksize)/1024/1024 ) savings
from
   dba_data_files a,
   (select file_id, max(block_id+blocks-1) hwm
   from
      dba_extents
   group by file_id ) b
where a.file_id = b.file_id(+);
